Things to do in Guishan Island

This trip to Guishan Island in Yilan was truly amazing, and looking back on it still puts me in such a great mood! The weather on the day we set sail was absolutely fantastic. The azure sea paired with the warm sunshine (perhaps a bit too warm) made just sitting on the boat and feeling the ocean breeze feel incredibly therapeutic. The most surprising and exciting part was that we were the very first boat to encounter a pod of dolphins! We estimated there were about 60 to 100 dolphins leaping and swimming all around us. The shock and emotion of seeing them up close like that are truly beyond words—we were just so lucky! Stepping onto the mysterious Guishan Island for the first time, the tour guide's explanations were a major highlight of the entire trip. Their delivery was lively and full of humor, making the ecology and historical stories sound like a comedy show. Being able to see so many cute dolphins in such gorgeous weather and listening to such entertaining guidance made for an extremely fulfilling and happy day, leaving me with wonderful memories to cherish!

This was my first time booking a Klook tour. The day before, they thoughtfully sent a text message with the meeting time and location (including a photo), which was a huge plus! I hadn't been to Guishan Island before and was curious about the itinerary. To my surprise, many people participated in the 401 Highland climb that day. Our guide, Mr. Dong, also climbed the entire 401 Highland with us; he must be the hardest-working guide in all of Taiwan. We arrived on the island in the morning, received a brief introduction, and then immediately started climbing the 401 Highland. The weather that day was hot and humid, and I was completely exhausted by the time we descended. In the afternoon, we took a boat tour around Guishan Island, and the onboard guide provided a very detailed explanation. We returned to port around 3 PM.

From the Line customer service, to the check-in counter staff, to the crew members on the boat, everyone made me feel so warm and welcome! Here, I saw Taiwan's most beautiful scenery: "strong human kindness." Even traveling alone, I wasn't afraid of not being taken care of. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience, and thank you to the staff for sharing their knowledge. Next time, I'll remember to get enough sleep and take motion sickness medication! Although the waves were too strong to land on the island today, I saw many friendly and adorable dolphins, the beautiful Yin-Yang Sea, and the Milk Sea. The explanations were also very clear and interesting. Next time, I want to go to 401! It was my first time seeing Guishan Island and dolphins up close, and I was deeply moved. Thank you to nature for its beauty; I hope everyone will help protect it. The park around the harbor and Sunrise Beach are also very beautiful and worth visiting!

The itinerary allowed plenty of time for leisurely photos and sightseeing. Our guide, Xiao Hei, was very friendly. The weather for whale watching was excellent, with calm seas, and we saw many dolphins. The onboard guide provided information about the history and topography of Guishan Island, as well as the different types of dolphins.

​This tour was hands down one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Taiwan! Booking through Klook was seamless, and the entire day was exceptionally well-organized, comfortable, and memorable. ​Fantastic value for money, stress-free logistics, and unforgettable memories. I would recommend this Klook day tour to anyone visiting Taiwan in a heartbeat! 🇹🇼✨ Special shout-out to our very energetic tour guide, Ms Evelyn Li!!! 🤙🏼 Very hands on and her energy is very giving!!! She takes care of our trip to the fullest!!! 🫶🏼

Bringing the kids here for their first shrimp fishing experience was so much fun! We had barely sat down when we caught a really big, lively shrimp! The bait was dried shrimp, which was a bit hard to hook. The shrimp were quite easy to catch; we rented two rods for 70 minutes and each caught 12 shrimp. The kids felt a great sense of accomplishment! Some of the shrimp can pinch, but gloves are provided. Staff are available to assist with any questions. Shrimp crackers and drinks are available on-site, and these are included with Klook ticket purchases. There's also a shrimp fishing competition where the first few people to catch a shrimp during the same time period can claim a shrimp cracker. After fishing and weighing your catch, you can take your bucket of shrimp to the self-service grilling area across the way or have them cooked by staff. It was truly delicious and enjoyable!
